Painful indent on my 8 yr olds temple

[abigail_duclos]

My daughter has a small indent on her right temple that's about the size of the top to an ink pen lid, or the tip of your pinky. She said she hasn't hit her head or bumped anything. She's complaining of pain near that area. Should I be taking her to an urgent care, or should I wait to go to the doctor on Monday, or just wait to see if it goes away in a week. I'm so worried it could be something serious.... What to do what to do?

Ah Yes the angels can do that ..well its a tough one to guess at  certainly if she has an injury and if it wasn't there before now it is one has to assume something caused it.Anything really hurting has to be checked out is she back at school yet?

She didn't complain of it until yesterday evening- today she mentioned it a few times, and tonight she claims its causing alot of pain. (I was thinking she just didn't want to go to bed- now I'm not so sure)

I always tell a parent if something is hurting and is a concern go to see a doctor or the ER its really in your hands , and until she is examined there is no answer. How long has she had it ?
